FAQs
Does the host computer need to be connected to use scripting, links or Activity Links?
Standard Links - Links that are local to the panel (input and output on same panel) will execute without being connected to the host computer. If you are using Remote links, where the input is on one panel and the output is on another panel, the host computer needs to be connected.
Scripting - No matter what type of script, the host computer needs to be connected and running. All scripts use the script server running on the host computer.
Activity Links are identical to Standard Links. If the input event and output action are on the same panel, the host computer does not have to be connected. If the Input Event is on one panel and the output action is on another panel, the host computer needs to be connected and running.
